The amazing thing is that almost every engine that has participated in this tournament out search Sloppy by usually 3-5 plies. Well done Ilari!

Thanks for the nice tournament Graham.

Thanks for the nice tournament Graham.

Thanks Ben-Hur.
Although I enjoy running these tournaments regardless, it's still nice to know that some engine authors enjoy following them too.

Cheers,
Graham.
